A bunch of my friends and I ran the Red Rock Relay this year in September. It was one of the most fun things I've done. Talk about the most gigglingest, stinkiest, sweatiest, bondingest, cheerleadingest, hardest time of your life! (Yes I made up some of my own words to describe my experience) We stayed in Stacia's in-law's cabin up Parowan and I got about 4 hours of sleep the first night. We started the race at about 6 a.m. at Brian Head and finished around noon the next day in Springdale (right by Zions canyon). We lived in the car for most of the time except for some much needed breaks at Cassie's and Haley's. Showers were the best things ever! I ran my first leg (5.8-SO HARD!!!) around 10 am, my second leg (5.6) at about 8:30 pm, and my last leg at about 5 am. All on about 7 hours of sleep in two nights.
Here I am on my first leg pretending like I don't want to fall over and collapse
| Waiting for our turn to run (Erin, Me, Cassie, Darla) |
Here is our whole team minus Michelle who was running at the moment.
Van 1's first leg finished
Stripe #1
Tiff, Me, and Kathi
These two were on another team from Delta and we got to run with them for a little bit of the race
At the finish line!
Kaela, Dani, Cassie, Michelle, Me, Amber, Darla
Carli, McKenna, Marci, Erin, Shannon, Stacia
Obviously we thought our Stripes were a big deal because we're showing them off in every picture.
I will definitely be doing this again! So much fun.
